Old Rugged Cross - Studio Sessions

- Опубликовано: 25 апр 2024
- I have always loved the hymn, Old Rugged Cross. I grew up hearing this song but It didn't really mean anything to me then. Today, I understand and have this great awe and gratefulness for what Jesus has done for me on the cross. He died to take my place and pay for all my sins. So now when I sing this old hymn it means everything to me.

LYRICS:
On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross
The emblem of suffering and shame
And I love that old cross where the Dearest and Best
For a world of lost sinners was slain
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it someday for a crown
Oh, that old rugged cross so despised by the world
Has a wondrous attraction for me
For the dear Lamb of God left His glory above
To bear it to dark Calvary
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it someday for a crown
So I'll cherish the old rugged cross
Till my trophies at last I lay down
I will cling to the old rugged cross
And exchange it someday for a crown

I sit here laying in bed drunk again. I hate myself because I can’t stop drinking. I very much a believer, thank you to my great grandma bell. I’m so scared of hell that I can’t even take my own life. For one it’s not mine to destroy, I am the Lords vessel. Also, what would that show to my children and the the kids I coached. Through the 7yrs I coach youth football and spread Gods love. I lay here drunk lady upset with me and my kids miss me. But yet every night I scroll through RUclips waiting my life away. Then it’s videos like this you come across that just puts a little faith back in ya. It gives you a little pep in your step. Yes, it should be like that already just for God. But!! We are human and sometimes it’s hard to be, let’s say more like Jesus. Buuuut!!!! Guess what? God created this and this is worshipping. Thank you Lord, I really needed this one.
Brother I just prayed for you and for the Lord to deliver you from this addiction…stay strong and never end your life…don’t give those thoughts a place to live. If this music helps you PLEASE listen to K-LOVE radio at klove.com it will inspire and encourage you throughout the day and night. Peace and blessings
Brother I feel you I’m also going through the same as you
Keep on brother. May we keep struggling against the things that so easily ensnares. I am reminded of a CS Lewis quote. "It would seem that Our Lord finds our desires not too strong, but too weak. We are half-hearted creatures, fooling about with drink and sex and ambition when infinite joy is offered us, like an ignorant child who wants to go on making mud pies in a slum because he cannot imagine what is meant by the offer of a holiday at the sea. We are far too easily pleased."
Bro God has a plan. However it’s time to lean on Him and not the drink. I’m a recovering addict and have been clean and sober for 18 years(almost). There is still a void that you are trying to fill with the alcohol. Fill it with God and His love for you. It’s not easy, but it’s worth it. God didn’t design us to lean on those things. He loves you and wants the best for you. I don’t know you but I love you as well. I will be in prayer for you. Just remember that if you wake up in the morning, it’s by design. It means you were chosen to have breath in your lungs, which means your life has PURPOSE. In Jesus name I pray healing over your hurts and I pray that you fully surrender to His will.
I’ve got ears to hear if you ever need someone to talk to. I’m sorry you are going through a difficult time. Feel free to reach out to me… The Lord knows exactly where you are and always remember that you were born to win. You can do this with HIS help!
Praise the Living God!!! 18+ years sober, by His Amazing Grace! Thank You, Jesus for saving a wretch like me!
❤❤ praise the lord, some of us are still climbing out of sin but have hope because of his amazing grace❤❤❤
To all those who are sober, congrats. To all those who are locked in the chains of drugs and alcohol YOU can take control, reach out to someone, anyone and ask for help, a friend , a relative, a stranger, a doctor, a clergyman. I struggled with alcohol my whole life until I knew I would lose the love of my life if I continued to drink I reached out and found the help I needed. I will celebrate 18 wonderful sober years June 26, 2024. I am so blessed.
By prayer and the grace of God, I'm sober 16 yrs 3/14/09.

These times cry out to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ in America! "IN GOD WE TRUST" is falling away! "COME JESUS COME" is our cry!
Keep ready! JESUS CHRIST IS COMING! HE PROMISED. HE KEEPS HIS WORD.
Maranatha! 1 Cor.16:22; John 14:1-3, 6; Titus 2:11-15.
To know and believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior! John 3:16. That is our greatest blessing in life. Wonderful Praise here for God the Son. John 1:1, 3-4; 14,18*; Mt.16:13-20.
THE ANGELS GIVE GLORY TO GOD IN HEAVEN! HERE WE HEAR AND SEE EARTH "ANGELS" DOING IT TOO! RIGHT HERE! JUST LIKE YOU!
WE LOVE YOU, LORD! YOU GAVE ALL FOR US. YOUR SUFFERING WAS IMMENSE! WE GIVE YOU ALL THE GLORY! YOU ARE OUR LIFE SAVIOR. YOU KEEP YOUR WORD IN THE BIBLE. Subscribed
GOD'S BLESSINGS TO ALL NATIONS AND PEOPLES
Gospel! The good news about Jesus Christ and salvation from judgment on our sins. Jesus dined with His disciples; Mark 14:22-25, the night before He went to the cross.
Jesus and His disciples were eating a Passover meal together at the Last Supper. After partaking of bread and wine (His body and His blood) , the Bible mentions the hymn Jesus sang with His disciples. “And when they had sung a hymn, they went out to the Mount of Olives” Mark 14:26. What were they singing on such an occasion? PRAISE! Psalms 113-118.
THE GOOD NEWS
"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me.."John 14.6 .
Blood coming from his body, NAKED, hanging on that cross like Roman torture weapon! What a Lord God and Savior! He had to. HE is God the Son. Only His sinless blood could pay our sins price.The Savior was born to die for our sins so we could live through Him. 1 John 1:8-10; 2:1-2
THE PAYMENT BY HIS BLOOD FOR ALL SINS EVER!
"And according to the Law, one may almost say, all things are cleansed with blood, and without shedding of blood there is no forgiveness." Hebrews 9:22
Romans 5:8 " But God demonstrates his love for us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. 9 Much more then, now justified by his blood, we will be saved from wrath through him."
“For he (God) hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” 2 Corinthians 5:21.
Matthew 26: 28 "For this is my blood of the New Testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." ( life is in the blood. He had to pay with His life)
* * * God knew you before the world was made! Ephesians 1:1-14. Prayer goes out for you and those here. A Crown in Heaven awaits all who share the Gospel of Jesus Christ that saves a soul. ( see"JESUS SAVES") 1 Thessalonians 2:19-20; Philippians 4:1. The Apostle Paul said in Romans 1:16 "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believes; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek".
This praise resounds throughout the earth: "Jesus Christ is Lord and God. Only He saves". He testified: ''I and my Father are One" John 10:30 (*see also 31-42).
2 Samuel chapter 22:verse 50 "Therefore I will praise you, O Lord, out of the countries, and I will praise your name."
JESUS SAVES
God the Son (Jesus Christ) has given us the gospel to share with the world. Mark 16:15: "And He said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature."
How can we hear it? Scripture tells us. Romans 10:17 "Then faith comes by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (We receive the "word" in many ways. The "Word" is Jesus Christ!); John 1:1-5. God the Holy Spirit teaches through the Word of God in the Bible.
The Birth of Jesus Christ
Isaiah 7: 14: "Therefore the LORD shall give you a sign; behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and call His name Immanuel." Hebrew: עִמָּנוּאֵל, "God with us" in human flesh but without sin. The Savior of the world was born to die for our sins! He did so 33 years later. His terrible ordeal; body mutilated; blood poured out, finally died (John 19:30; Luke 23:46 ) and was placed in a tomb and rose from the dead the 3rd day ! "HE IS RISEN" Matthew 28: 6.
Isaiah 53:" 5 But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. 6 All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on him the iniquity of us all." - IT IS FOUNDED UPON GOD'S LOVE FOR MAN AND WOMAN HE CREATED
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
"For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3: 23
" For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23
"1 Corinthians 15: 3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:"
BY GOD'S GRACE ALONE THROUGH FAITH ALONE IN JESUS CHRIST ARE WE SAVED
Ephesians 2:8 "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 9 not of works, lest any man should boast."
Jesus died and paid the penalty for our sins to rescue us from eternal death. He died on our behalf. We believe in Him, trusting His death and shedding of His blood as payment for ALL our sins and His burial and resurrection from the dead the third day! John 20:24-31; 1 Corinthians 15: 3-4 above.
WHOSOEVER BELIEVES SHALL TESTIFY TO THE TRUTH
Romans 10:
9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”
TO DIE IS TO REJECT SALVATION IN JESUS CHRIST AND BE SEPARATE FROM GOD FOREVERMORE
Salvation and forgiveness of sins is the blessing of anyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. We receive the baptism of God the Holy Spirit immediately which seals us in Christ and that is permanent! Ephesians 1:13-14. Those who reject the free gift of salvation, see John 3:16 above, "perish", which means their sins are judged by God the Son and they suffer eternal separation from God and the family of God forever called the "second death". Revelation 21:8.
"Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." Romans 5: 1
